A More-is-more Strat Fit for a Modern Maestro

When it comes to the topic of quintessential shredders, Yngwie Malmsteen is at the top of the list. And his custom-spec'd Fender Stratocaster has been his weapon of choice for the totality of his decades-long career. The Yngwie Malmsteen Strat was tailor-made for virtuosic fretboard gymnastics, boasting a comfortably contoured alder body, a relaxed Modern "C"-shaped neck, and a lightning-fast scalloped fingerboard. A set of Seymour Duncan YJM Fury noiseless Strat pickups discharge scorching-hot lead tones with maximum articulation. You also get a sustain-enhancing brass nut, vintage-style "F"-stamped tuning machines, and a 6-saddle American Vintage synchronized tremolo. Players searching for the ultimate conduit for their rapid-fire neoclassical excursions will find the Fender Yngwie Malmsteen Stratocaster the consummate shred machine.

Satisfies your need for speed

You can bet the Yngwie Malmsteen Stratocaster was built for breaking speed records. Built upon a sleek contoured alder body with a spotlight-ready gloss urethane finish, this solidbody electric guitar features a malleable Modern "C"-shaped maple neck with a '70s Bullet-style truss rod and a sustain-heightening brass nut. Its fast-playing 9.5-inch-radius, 21-fret fingerboard is scalloped — just like Yngwie's personal Strats — arming you with enhanced control and extended note-manipulation expression.

Poised for savage sonic fury

Employing a patented stack design, the Fender Yngwie Malmsteen Stratocaster's Seymour Duncan YJM Fury Strat pickups deliver savage lead tones with zero noise. These pups contain custom-length Alnico V rod magnets and a unique coil architecture, arming you with truckloads of precision, fluidity, and articulation — the holy trifecta of shred-approved sonic characteristics. The guitarists here at Sweetwater appreciate how balanced YJM Fury Strat pickups are; you get enough bite to cut through the din, but without any trace of harshness or brittleness. The Yngwie Malmsteen Strat also brandishes Fender's no-load tone control, which retains every ounce of your high end in the fully open position.

Virtuoso-worthy appointments

The Yngwie Malmsteen Stratocaster is a well-appointed axe. For starters, its vintage-style "F"-stamped tuning machines are absolutely rock solid. Its 6-saddle American Vintage synchronized tremolo is as stable as all get out, enabling you to execute the gamut of pitch pyrotechnics with complete impunity. The Yngwie Malmsteen Strat showcases a 3-ply pickguard, a wing-style string tree, and aged white plastic knobs. To top it off, this exquisite solidbody electric guitar flaunts a signature-emblazoned large '70s-style headstock.

Sleek, Fast, and built for Speed!

First off Ide like to start out by thanking the Sweetwater crew for their continued support and customer service! Top notch service is next to none they are the best in the business! I have wanted this guitar since I was 16 years old, I'm 27 now. I've played hundreds of strats. Some good, some horrible. I always wondered about a scalloped neck and I'm a huge Yngwie fan so I always wanted to try it. So I finally was able to purchase my dream Stratocaster! I read a lot of reviews of guys complaining about E strings jumping off the board. The problem is your pressing too hard you need to relax your left hand and adjust your articulation I slid off a couple times but within 5 mins it felt totally natural. When I opened the case and looked at the guitar it was absolutely flawless! I took the inspection card outback of the strings and strummed and chord and the guitar was in perfect tune! As they usually are from Sweetwater. So I wanted to play it for a few days before I wrote a review. I don't like this guitar........ I LOVE THIS GUITAR! Ive played vintage 70s era fender strats and they even got the body contours right! I played it acoustically and it was nice and resonant but the magic happened when I plugged it in! Those pickups are AMAZING! Yngwie knows tone and Seymour Duncan made it happen! These pickups are throaty and don't color the sound of the guitar the back pickup is very aggressive and chunky, the middle pickup is very quacky like a normal Strat, and the neck pickup is like heaven! It's so smooth and creamy and very very fluid sounding! The fret work and scalloping is done with sharp precision. The frets look like Mirrors the dressing is the best I've ever seen! The edges are rolled nicely and the neck is super comfortable to play. The scallops are deep and you can really really get under the string to get crazy bends and Vibrato is effortless on this guitar. Finally the tremolo. Most fob is strat guys know that bars on strat are temperamental and they go out of time easily. This trem it set up to yngwies spec to float. The trem is set up and balanced beautifully I am used to a floyd rose so this trem is very very light tension wise. So I said let's abuse it so I did I dumped the bar and made horrid noises and played harmonics and pulled the bar up and back down again. Then played a e chord the guitar tuning NEVER MOVED! This guitar is worth every penny and it top notch build quality!

Great Guitar!

The fit and finish is superb. Fret ends are well dressed and don't bite your hands. Scalloped fretboard needs a lighter touch but I got it in in day...Super surprised to have it intonated and in tune! The low and high strings slip off on some. This one doesn't have that. Look at the picture of the one you want carefully to see the low and high E strings to see how they go over the neck. This one is fine! Fender is making really fine guitars now. And this one is one of them. The price is right! Thank you Fender and Sweetwater.

Stopping "E" strings from pushing off the fret board

I love my new Fender Yngwei Malmsteen Strat...a lot in fact!

But, the Malmsteen strat has a serious design flaw. Both E strings are so close to the edge of the fretboard that they slip off the fret board all the time. I've read this is how Yngwei designed the guitar. I also experienced this problem when I modded teles putting strat saddles on that are wider than tele saddles.

I've read somebody makes a $250 narrower bridge. Not something I want to spend another $250 for.

My simple solution is to grind the edges of both E saddle's sides slightly, and the A saddle, and the B saddle. Then with a set of needle nose pliers, I bend both E bridge screws that goes into the saddle to where the saddle turns inward toward the A saddle and toward the B saddle. Problem solved. My E strings no longer slip off the fret board.

Rated 5/5

Kicks ***!

You marvel at the cost of a Malmsteen strat until you play one. And not only a killer ax, but an equally impressive hardshell case. The scalloping, pickups that for some reason make me think of the old Rick Derringer Stealth pickup, really sweet. Take a try with the amp set to ear-bleed and enjoy what a hot strat can do. Mortgage the dog or whatever, but GET ONE OF THESE!!!

It’s impossible to imagine a world without Fender guitars, and if you’re like many of the guitarists at Sweetwater, then Fender not only made the first guitar you ever bought " they made the last one too! From building the first mass-produced solidbody electric guitars and basses in the 1950s to creating some of the most influential amplifier designs in history, it’s no wonder why Fender is one of the biggest names in the business. As one of the world’s largest Fender dealers, we have countless guitars, basses, amps, effects pedals, and accessories in stock and ready to ship, whenever you need them. We’re always getting our hands on their latest creations, and there’s nothing we love more than to tell our customers all about them! So, whether you’re looking for your first axe or a Custom Shop creation, make sure to give your Sweetwater Sales Engineer a call at (800) 222-4700.
